Chapter 369 – Longer Version, Please?
Scarlet Red, Primal Queen of Fire, Hated by the Underworld, yet chosen as the Firstborn of Hell… chose Cassius Desdemona as her contractor.
It wasn't something she'd expected when she first met him, since all she'd seen then was a man who'd taken a precious person away from her side.
And, to be honest, that was still very much true. But Scarlet had decided to look, just as Amate had told her to, for the part of her friend hidden inside that annoying little man.
Doing that made the contract easier to accept. But it wasn't the only reason.
No matter how much it irritated her, Cassius was blasphemously talented, and could reach a very high ceiling if he managed not to die.
Knowing she needed strength for her eventual return to the Underworld, for a little payback against that damn goddess, accepting Cassius turned out to be a smart move.
So she did it, after imposing her rules.
